Have been playing a while now(600+ hours) but in 2vs2 with a mate I'm having trouble with those damn communists using the OORAH! and PPSH upgrade for their conscripts. A similiar problem occurs with the shock troops which win easily vs my Volkgrenadiers+STG44.
When I make 2 ISG's they just rush up or flank me, and an MG34 HMG doesn't seem to supress them quick enough before they throw a frag or molotov. Making me bleed ManPower at the max and eventually losing the game.
What is -possibly- the best counter vs these units?
Hard mobile infantry counters for OKW: Obers, P4, MG34 (not particularly effective), Falls
PPSH does nothing on range so try to only engage them from as far away as possible. If they go Shocks they dont have Guards and struggle to get MP for a Zis3. So you can also go Luchs or Flak HT in early game to bleed MP and lock down areas of the map. ISG are good vs support weapons, they are not worth it against mobile infantry. Spending MP on them will hurt you against Con Spam and Shocks.
Also getting two SPs is not generally not worth it either. They are too expensive and take too long to build, plus they are hard to keep alive in mid-to lategame and don´t scale well. Also hard to get vet on them. Better to get another Volks instead or spend the MP on an MG34.
Generally OKW doesn´t struggle against Conscript spam or Shocks, you can get double Obers out which just melt any soviet infantry once they are vet 2. Volks are also generally better than Conscripts so you should be at a advantage anyways.
